Abstract
A substrate mapping devicemaps a plurality of substratesinside a container where the substratesare accommodated so as to be arrayed in a given arrayed direction. The substrate mapping deviceincludes a sensorconfigured to detect a state of the substrate, a manipulatorconfigured to move the sensor, and a control deviceconfigured to control the manipulatorto move the sensoralong a mapping course. The control devicesets a first mapping position and a second mapping position different in the position in the arrayed direction of the substratesfrom the first mapping position, and sets the mapping course based on the first mapping position and the second mapping position.
